The sadist think I've learned today, is that my Mum's Sister who we had lost contact with in the mid-1980's lived just a mile away from my mum, she died in 2011 aged 80

I lived just 2 streets away from my Aunty 2002-2008 and one of my girls still lives there

One of my sisters works at a local doctors a few  streets away, she could even have been a patient there.

I've blown away and so sad

 Well in Sarah's  case, there does not seem to be any record of her death apart from Patrick remarrying in Abt 1905/6 and listed as Widower

Exactly, and not at all unusual not to have a death cert at the time.

I guess but as my Great Grandmother would be nice to know when and why 

Sarah died between 1901 and 1911.

And she wasn't a widow at the time and she didn't live in Templeshannon.

Still not sure if this is the correct Swaine family, they haven't moved to Gorey by 1911.

Patrick has a new wife and 3 children with her.
Don't see a death for his first wife Sarah but there is a marriage for widower Patrick to Mary Gilbert

It looks like Sarah's records were lost in 1922 there is some info on a Will
